# The provider, not hooks

> Sending and signing go through the announced EIP-1193 provider and the Solana Wallet Standard, driven by stock tools.

Avok does not wrap sending and signing in framework hooks. `createAvokClient` announces a standard
provider, and you transact with the standard ecosystem tools. There is nothing Avok-specific in
how you send.

## What gets announced

* **EVM:** an EIP-1193 provider, announced over [EIP-6963](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-6963).
  wagmi, viem, ethers, and RainbowKit discover it like any other injected wallet.
* **Solana:** a wallet registered through the
  [Solana Wallet Standard](https://github.com/wallet-standard/wallet-standard).
  `@solana/wallet-adapter` discovers it automatically.

The announced identity (name, icon, and reverse-DNS id) is the **operator's**, supplied at config. See [Trust and defaults](/concepts/trust-and-defaults).

## Supported EIP-1193 methods

The provider answers these JSON-RPC methods:

| Method                       | Purpose                                                                                                   |

| `wallet_getCallsStatus`      | Report the status of a submitted bundle.                                                                  |
| `eth_sendTransaction`        | Send a single transaction.                                                                                |
| `wallet_switchEthereumChain` | Switch the active chain.                                                                                  |

## Supported Solana Wallet Standard features

`standard:connect`, `standard:disconnect`, `standard:events`, `solana:signMessage`,
`solana:signTransaction`, and `solana:signAndSendTransaction`, on chains `solana:mainnet` and
`solana:devnet`.

## Get the provider directly

If you are not using a connector library, `client.getEip1193Provider()` hands you the EIP-1193
provider for direct use with viem's `custom()` transport. See [Send a
transaction](/get-started/send).
